THE SAVIOR'S
CHAPTER 18 THE FIRST MISSION

Three days later. 

Ethan calls First to learn of Sarayu's development after a month of training as a member of the World Peace Forces. “What do you think, First? Is Sarayu already able to participate in the mission?” 

“Sarayu development is indeed quite rapid, Mr. Ethan. Sarayu learned quickly and mastered quickly as well. Even Sarayu can imitate the abilities of some members like my ability to use dual weapons, second's ability to slow down the time when Sarayu needed it and Sixth's ability to switch places even if it wasn't on a far-reaching scale as Sixth. .” does 

As I expected, Sarayu's true ability might be to copy someone else's abilities. If that is true then Sarayu may have nothing to do with the legends in that ancient site. But. . .why can Sarayu control the wind? Whose ability did Sarayu emulate? While listening to First's explanation, Ethan speaks to himself in his mind assessing Sarayu's development. 

“. . . But Mr Ethan?” First continues his explanation to Ethan and makes Ethan who is engrossed with his mind then slightly jerked. 

“But what, First?” Ethan frowned in astonishment. 

“If you directly send Sarayu to the battlefield, I think it's too much for her. As you know, Sarayu is just a civilian who has never even seen war in person. If sending it directly in an unfamiliar state, then I'm afraid Sarayu who is not used to it may take the wrong decision because he is not used to it.” As usual, First who was used to plunging into the battlefield gave a wise answer in judging everything. 

Ethan nods his head in agreement with First's explanation of Sarayu's background as a civilian who has never seen war in person. “You're right, First. Seeing the rapid and rapid development of Sarayu, I forgot the important fact that Sarayu was only a civilian before coming here. Then what advice can you give to get Sarayu mentally trained?” 

“What if you send Sarayu to an easier task first, Mister?” First tried to think of something in his mind to make Sarayu get used to her situation which was no longer an ordinary civilian. 

“You're right, First. But roughly what task would be appropriate for Sarayu to get used to being in a pretty strong pressure other than going to war?” Similar to First, Ethan is thinking of the right way for Sarayu to get him used to the stressful conditions and able to make the right decisions in times of tremendous pressure . 

At a time when Ethan and First are thinking hard to find the right way for Sarayu to get used to the circumstances and the environment that is full of pressure. Forth suddenly contacts Ethan through a communication channel in Ethan's room. 

“Mr Ethan, can I talk to you now?” 

Ethan presses the receive button before answering a call made by Forth that sounds a little rushed. “I'm together with First here, can he hear it too, Forth?” 

“Yes, Mr. Ethan. That's no problem.” 

“What's up then, Forth? Why suddenly contact me in such a hasty tone?” Ethan frowned because he realized Forth was not a person who easily nervous and also easily panicked. For some time working together, the Forth known to Ethan is typical of quiet people just like First and Eighth. 

“Neutral country group asks for help to Ingmar Alliance, Sir. I just saw the incoming information and made sure if the neutral country group is currently trying to ask us for help.” 

Ethan's forehead shriveled again and this time the frown was not just a layer but two layers. “Isn't this unusual, Forth? Why would a neutral country group ask us for help?” 

“Not so long ago the group of neutral countries appointed someone as the representative ambassador of the group of neutral countries who will be the star in the campaign to vote neutral in the war of the two alliances. But it seems. . . The Arael Alliance, which knows this and usually targets developing countries as its members, is not receptive to the idea. In a campaign carried out by a group of neutral countries, their ambassadors were attacked and are currently under close supervision.” 

First nodded his head. “Yes, Mr. Ethan. Looks like luck is siding with us.” 

“Yes, I did not expect it the way we just thought of suddenly came to us easily.” After replying to First, Ethan then returns to Forth. “Forth, make an announcement to Sarayu, Dylan, Third and Ninth to gather in the meeting room an hour from now.” 

“Good, Sir. Then how should I answer the request of the group of neutral countries, Mr?” 

Ethan glanced towards First before answering Forth's question. “Respond that we will tell you in two days.” 

“Good, Mr.” 

“Ah one more, Forth.” Ethan stops Forth from making an announcement on his orders. 

“Ya, Mr.” 

“Can I request data on ambassadors from neutral country groups? I'd like to explain later in the meeting.” 

“Sure, Sir. I'll give you the data later before the meeting starts.” 

Not long after the call made by Forth was interrupted, a notification was heard made by Forth on the orders of Ethan. An hour later, Ethan along with several people who had been asked to attend the meeting had gathered and sat in their seats respectively. 

“Alright since everyone has gathered, I will tell you the reason I called you here. First we got a request from a group of neutral countries regarding bodyguards capable of escorting their ambassadors.” Ethan opens the meeting by giving a small explanation of the request of the neutral country group first. 

Third who felt strange at the request of the neutral country group then raised his hand and asked Ethan. “Why suddenly the neutral country group asks for help from our Alliance, Mr Ethan?” 

Forth, who was aware of the situation and the news of the request from the neutral country group, then opened his mouth to give an explanation to Third and the other meeting participants. “As we know, the group of neutral countries contains countries that are mostly developing countries with a high population. They prefer to be in a neutral group to protect their people from the devastation of a war that might have a greater impact on developed countries like ours. As we know, the Arael Alliance has been eyeing weak nations and forcing them to join their alliance to save their people. For that reason, the neutral group of countries then made a campaign to developing countries and also poor countries to be careful when making the decision to join certain alliances. Not long ago the ambassador who was appointed as a model in the campaign came under attack allegedly from the Arael Alliance and they asked the Ingmar Alliance for help to send someone who could keep the safety of the ambassador they.” 

Third who had not understood then nodded his head as a signal that he now understood the reason behind the request of the neutral state group to the Ingmar Alliance. 

“Then who will you choose to execute that command, Ethan?” This time it was Dylan's turn to open his mouth and ask Ethan. 

“Sarayu who will run the task this time.”
